We’re expecting hot temperatures in the mid-90s. As temperatures climb, there are several things to keep in mind to :

☀️ Stay out of the sun to prevent health-related illnesses like heat exhaustion and heat stroke.

👨‍👩‍👦 Twice a day, check on friends, family and neighbors who may have a higher risk of heat-related illnesses.

🚗 Never leave infants, pets or children in parked cars – it can get dangerously hot quickly.

Observed each year on June 12, Loving Day commemorates the 1967 U.S. Supreme Court decision in *Loving v. Virginia*, which struck down laws banning in*******al marriage and became a landmark civil rights victory.

Couples must have a valid marriage license and bring two witnesses. Ceremonies are available by prior arrangement.
